Living Off The Grid With Renewable Energy: A Case Study, Jake Reid O'Balle
Living Off The Grid With Renewable Energy: A Case Study, Jake Reid O'Balle
Construction Management
The trend towards green, sustainable living is on the rise and the benefits are continuing to make noise in the world of homeowners. In this project, the benefits of renewable energy and consumer preferences were analyzed and applied to off-grid living in the form of a case study. It was found that the majority of homebuyers are concerned about the environment and wanted an environmentally friendly home but are not willing to pay more in order to achieve these desires. This information spurred the need for a detailed assessment of the feasibility of sustainable off-grid living. After conducting extensive research, …
The Integration Of Virtual Reality In The Commercial Construction Industry, Justin T. Gin
The Integration Of Virtual Reality In The Commercial Construction Industry, Justin T. Gin
Construction Management
Virtual reality has recently been spreading throughout the commercial construction industry rapidly. Some of its capabilities are safety training, helping spot Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) issues, logistics planning, and virtual walkthroughs. Many construction companies were starting to utilize virtual reality's advantages until COVID-19 hit. The initial wave of COVID slowed down construction in general as well as the need or use of virtual reality. Now, some companies are worried about the health risks and implementation issues that virtual reality headsets might bring while other companies are optimistic about the future of virtual reality. This report will explore the different …

Gnss Construction Surveying, Jake C. Carter
Construction Management
This Senior Project examines world of cutting-edge surveying technology which will be implemented into Cal Poly’s Construction Management 239 Construction Surveying course. It creates a field exercise for student learning that mimics the application the of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and how they are used in the construction industry. The new exercise includes the use of GNSS receivers, base hubs, field computers, and a Topcon MAGNET Field application. From the research phase to the training/learning phase to the implementation of the assignment into the course this project embodied the “Learn-By-Doing” philosophy. This project was successful in demonstrating how GNSS …
Construction Management Students Using Technology In The Field, Anthony D. Bongi
Construction Management Students Using Technology In The Field, Anthony D. Bongi
Construction Management
This research paper examines the affect technology has had on the desire for college graduates to pursue a career in the field. The idea of college graduates entering directly into a field leadership position was contemplated and discussed. Historically, soft skills such as leadership and communication have been the predominate attributes of any worker expected to run construction in the field. While the importance of these skills hasn’t changed, the importance of technological skills has increased to be considered alongside soft skills. Through an anonymous survey of industry professionals with 10+ years of experience as well as interviews of two …

Integration Of Electrical Impedance Spectroscopy For Multichannel Cell Culture Measurement, Conard Chan
Integration Of Electrical Impedance Spectroscopy For Multichannel Cell Culture Measurement, Conard Chan
Master's Theses
ELECTROCHEMICAL IMPEDANCE SPECTROSCOPY (EIS) has been widely used to study the electrical properties of biological material due to its non-invasive nature and experimental reliability. However, most of the precision impedance analyzers used in EIS only provide single- or two-channel measurements which are inadequate for larger-scale multiplexed measurements, such as those found in modern microfluidic cell culture experiments. The Biomedical Microsystems Laboratory has developed a 16-channel cell culture platform with integrated electrode arrays for monitoring cell growth and electrical properties (i.e., the so-called “electrical phenotype”). In this paper, a system consisting of a 16-channel solid-state analog multiplexer (MUX)paired with a low-cost, …

Characterization, Design, And Optimization Of Dual-Purpose Wind Turbines And Frost Protection Fans, Ethan Narad
Characterization, Design, And Optimization Of Dual-Purpose Wind Turbines And Frost Protection Fans, Ethan Narad
Master's Theses
This thesis report outlines the creation of a MATLAB tool to design reversible machines that can function as both wind turbines and as agricultural frost protection fans. Frost protection fans are used to prevent crop loss during radiative freeze events during which a temperature inversion is present. Such a dual-purpose machine fundamentally has the constraint that it must use symmetric airfoils, so a suite of tools for automatically designing an optimized wind turbine blade with symmetric airfoils using the Blade Element Momentum (BEM) theory approach is presented. The BEM code is then re-derived and adapted for use with a frost …
The Future Of Media, Social Media, And Sports Media, Garrett Kramer Brown
The Future Of Media, Social Media, And Sports Media, Garrett Kramer Brown
Journalism
I hope that the findings of this project help guide and propel student media on how to create content tailored for social media. In my experience at times, it can seem like student media tends to throw everything at the wall and will just see what sticks. While that is sort of the nature of the business that doesn’t mean smarter methods can’t be taken. Also, it specifically gives guidelines to sports coverage, again, in my experience, it seems to me colligate sports coverage seems to be very stuck in their ways, which is not necessarily bad but at the …
As-932-22 Resolution On Updating Retention Of Exam And Gradebook Policy, Academic Senate Executive Committee
As-932-22 Resolution On Updating Retention Of Exam And Gradebook Policy, Academic Senate Executive Committee
Academic Senate Resolutions
Aligns Cal Poly’s exam retention policy with the CSU policy, specifically with sections 4.2.20, 4.2.22, and 4.2.24 of the CSU policy. It also resolves that in all cases, either digital or physical retention of records and materials is permissible. In the case of final projects falling under 4.2.20 that produce large physical artifacts, retention of a digital record such as a photo may be appropriate. And it resolves that the language in the appropriate section of the Academic Programs website shall be updated.

Living Library Digital Exhibit, Emma Davis, Jaime Ding, Catherine J. Trujillo
Creative Works
The living wall was designed around three main concepts: Sustainability, community, and beauty. Recycled and repurposed industrial material composed from pallets makes up the frame while plants soften and give life to the display. The student designers invited the community to interact with the wall as a way to make fresh produce and plants grown on campus available for people to enjoy. We often forget to look around and savor the natural world we live in. By inviting nature and sustainability into our living and studying space we are reminded that the world is beautiful and worth protecting.

Reverse Engineering And Enhancement Of Automobile Infotainment System, Cole Brinsfield
Reverse Engineering And Enhancement Of Automobile Infotainment System, Cole Brinsfield
Electrical Engineering
In 2011, luxury cars were released with displays built into the center. With modern computing power and technology such as Android Auto or Apple CarPlay, these older infotainment systems degrade the value of cars that are otherwise comparable to 2021 models. This project upgrades the infotainment system of one such car, a 2011 Infiniti G37. Through use of an additional microcomputer in the car, an infotainment upgrade can be achieved. This upgraded infotainment adds navigation, wireless audio, and data display capabilities to the car, while maintaining the functionality of the stock infotainment. While customized for the 2011 Infiniti G37, the …
